Alabama has launched a new subscription-based entity for names, pictures and likenesses, the university announced Thursday. The organization, dubbed Yea Alabama, will allow fans and sponsors to contribute money that will be paid to Crimson Tide players.

Contributions can be made in three ways. The first option, The Fans, allows monthly subscribers to choose a specific level of support in exchange for exclusive content throughout the year. In the second option, The Legends, individuals make tax-deductible contributions to the non-profit Walk of Champions. Sponsors may also provide players with support opportunities.

Below is what Alabama head coach Nick Saban and Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne had to say about the company.

Nick Saban

“I’ve always believed that our players should have the opportunity to capitalize on their name, image and likeness. Yea Alabama is an exciting new resource to help Crimson Tide physical education students create value for themselves through a variety of NIL opportunities. The Alabama brand is one of the strongest in sports, and our partnership with Yea Alabama provides our athletes with a presence unmatched in collegiate athletics.”

Greg Byrne

“Yea Alabama’s approach is both modern and sustainable in an ever-changing NIL environment. It’s so beneficial to have a platform that allows supporters, subscribers, and businesses to get involved. This is another way for any ‘Bama fan to stand behind our student-athletes, and we fully support Yea Alabama.”
